| RNA | Single-stranded Uses U instead of T Helps make proteins |
| Base pairing | A ↔ T (DNA) A ↔ U (RNA) C ↔ G |
| Proton | - Positive charge - Located in the nucleus |
| Neutron | - Neutral charge - Located in the nucleus |
| Electron | - Negative charge - Located outside of the nucleus |
| Atomic number | Number of protons |
